Bhopal
The American company, Union Carbide owned a factory in the town of Bhopal,
India. The factory produced a dangerous pesticide.
For years the workers had complained about poor safety at the factory. Many
people thought the factory was too close to the town. Union Carbide said extra
safety would be too expensive.
On the 2nd of December 1984, the factory in Bhopal leaked 27 tons of deadly
gas. The six safety systems had been switched off to save money. 20,000
people died. More than 120,000 people still suffer from sickness caused by the
accident and the pollution at the factory. These include blindness and cancer.
The area has never been cleaned and still poisons the people of Bhopal. The
company has refused to clean up the area, provide safe drinking water, help
the victims, or give information about the gas leak that doctors could use to
help the victims. The CEO of Union Carbide, Warren Anderson, is still wanted
in India for killing 20,000 people. The US government refuses to give him to the
Indian police.
